Off-Panel: It’s a Bird! It’s a Plane! It’s … Artoo?

This post originally appeared on Panels, which is now Book Riot Comics

Our daily round-up of news around the comics space, from the gutters and beyond.

“CBR reports that DC is cancelling five titles it in its superhero line: Doomed, Lobo, The Omega Men, Gotham By Midnight and Justice League United.”

This makes me worried for other titles that don’t do as well in sales, such as Gotham Academy.

Yes, that is an R2-D2 plane.

“As of 1 PM Sunday afternoon, after numerous construction delays, the new subway station at 34th Street and Eleventh Avenue is open, and running trains on the 7 line, which previously terminated at Times Square.”

You may be wondering why I’ve put this news into Off-Panel, but oh lord, Javits (the site of NYCC) now finally has a decently close train station.
